           I grew up in New Hampshire, a small town in South Canada, where in my father's words for the
    seasons were "Spring, Summer, Fairtime and Winter!" At that time, a week-long fair was held in the
    town every autumn. Thousands of people from other towns came to sell and buy things. It was the
    busiest time of the year.
           When "Fairtime" came, my grandma became the most "useful" and busiest person of the family.
    Grandma was a kind, well-educated old lady. She was good at cooking. All her rrelatives liked the
    foodshe cooked. During "fairtime", they would come to live in her house and have meals there.
    Grandma was always happy to look after them.
           Year after year, many people moved to big cities. There was no loner "Fairtime". Grandma became
    very old and was gradually going blind. My parents and I moved to live with Granma in her house. We
    did our best to make her day-to-day life as comfortable as possible. I was at high school then. What I
    often did at home was to help Grandma with the daily newspaper's crossword puzzle. However, she
    didn't look happy. She often sat in her room for hours, without saying a word.
           To attract people to move back, the Town Hall decided to reopen the Fair. One day, when I came
    back room school, I saw Grandma wearing her glasses, washing the dishes in the kitchen. With a big
    smile on her face, she looked a lot much younger. She told me that her two nieces would come. "They
    said the food I cooked was very delicious and they want to stay in my house again." Grandma said
    happily. "They will stay here for one week and we can have a big party. That must be the busiest week
    I've had in years!"
           I suddenly realized that Grandma didn't want to be looked after. She wanted to be "useful",
    appreciated and helpful.
    1. Thousands of people came to the town to __________ at the Fair.
    A. enjoy Grandma's food    
    B. sell and buy things
    C. learn to cook

    I have a neighbor we call “Happy”. I have never seen her angry at anything and never heard her say a harsh word to anyone or about anyone.

    Happy and her husband Ben, 70, have a huge garden. They spent many happy hours together working on it. Most of the neighbors watched interestingly as Ben doubled the size of their garden. As the cost of food climbed faster than Ben’s beans, we all wished we also had such a large garden. As the rest of us spent our dollars at the market, Happy could be seen picking beans in her back yard.

    Last month, Happy and Ben invited most of the neighborhood over for an “all-day food festival”. We were told to bring gloves and arrive very early in the morning. We didn’t know what was about to take place.

    By 9:00 am, there were nine of us in the garden picking tomatoes, beans, okra, and squash. By 10:00 am, there was lots of laughter. We shared a lot of stories. By five o’clock, everyone was a little drunk from the wine and beer. After dinner, we played games. As we were leaving, Happy and Ben handed each of us a shopping bag filled with the bounty of the day, already packaged and frozen. What a delightful gift!

    Well, the point wasn’t so much about the food. The true gift was a day of friends enjoying one another’s company. None of it would have happened if it had been for Happy and Ben’s garden. Now they have a blog about gardening in case we decided to plant a garden. And I am so proud of my tomato plants!

    1.According to paragraph 2, people wished they also had a garden so that                  .

    A．they could spend happy times together with their family in it

    B．they could grow vegetables and sell at the market

    C．they could invite their neighbors and hold parties in it

    D．they didn’t have to spend so much money on food

    2. Which of the following is the same as the underlined word “bounty”?

    A．Present.          B．Kindness.          C．Laughter.          D．Happiness.

    3.For what purpose did Happy and Ben invite the neighbors to their garden?

    A．To ask them to attend a birthday party

    B．To help them get to know each other.

    C．To let them enjoy what they grew in the garden.

    D．To ask them to share some interesting stories.

    4.What did the writer most probably think of the time he spent in the garden?

    A．He thought it was too short but enjoyable.

    B．He thought it was wonderful.

    C．He thought it was not as good as he thought.

    D．He thought it was too terrible.

    5.We can infer that                     .

    A．Happy and her husband Ben don’t like spending time with others

    B．Happy and her husband Ben sometimes quarrel with each other

    C．Happy and her husband Ben are a generous and warm-hearted couple

    D．Happy and her husband Ben live on the food they grow in their garden
